I'm Not the One at Fault

[Based on my health, there’s a good chance I’ll jump the queue and start this story early]

Chang Yu’an was born into a family of legal professionals, graduated with a JD from a prestigious university, and worked at a top-tier law firm for six years.

She rarely lost a lawsuit, and handled matters worth tens of billions in non-litigation work, yet died in a car crash that seemed like an accident.

When she opened her eyes again, she was wearing cheap clothes and sitting on a long-distance bus that smelled awful.

The woman beside her was talking nonstop, her eyes greedy, about to sell her.

Chang Yu’an thought she must be seeing a ghost. Anyone who could outmaneuver her hadn’t been born yet.

So she wiped her face, went along with the situation, and teamed up with the police to take down the entire human-trafficking ring.

As soon as she returned to the original owner’s so-called home, she received a threatening extortion letter from her scumbag ex.

The old diary recorded the misery the original owner had endured before taking her own life.

Her father was addicted to gambling, her mother was weak, and she had been molested by an uncle who lived next door.

Yet everyone around her urged her, “Just let it go. He’s your distant uncle. Making a fuss will only hurt you.”

The original owner tried desperately to escape, but died on the road after being abducted.

The final page was filled with the words “Why should I?” Every character was written in blood, like countless blades slashing across her face and arrows piercing her heart.

Being born a woman has never been your fault.

Those who haven’t faced the legal consequences their crimes deserve are highly likely to offend again. We can look for new evidence.

The lawyer assigned by the Legal Aid Center was named Yan Lingshu. Just like his name, he had never lost.

Chang Yu’an knew him, and they had been at odds since childhood, trading barbs whenever they met.

But this was the person who stayed by her side as she gathered evidence, reported the crimes, and filed appeals.

There is such a thing as justice in this world. Even if it comes late, I will reclaim every bit of it for you.
